Rezensionen

'Election audits are rapidly becoming election administrators' most powerful tool for ensuring that the system works for citizens as voters and taxpayers alike. This book should be required reading for anyone who seeks to understand why auditing the entire voting process is a necessity, not a luxury, for election officials nationwide.' Doug Chapin, director of the Program for Excellence in Election Administration at the University of Minnesota's Humphrey School of Public Affairs
